Cheers for the Video! Sorry for chiming in, I am interested in your opinion. Have you heard about - Pondalyn Phrenic Paramountcy (google it)? It is a smashing one off guide for discovering psychological methods to make women want you without the hard work. Ive heard some extraordinary things about it and my buddy finally got cool results with it.

I feel like the older I age, the more childish and irrational I become and I always just takes the easy way out where I've been stuck in living. I've failed many times trying to change such as experiencing, doing something new but it's just introduced me more problems. I really appreciate on how you put this presentation as how calming and simple it is buildings step by step the process and you put the obstacles(stressors) as the one that can make a better you. I will learn to embrace my problems and face it as it is. I really want to become a better me

Like Hans Selye's GAS Model 1. Alarm Phase 2. Resistance Phase (Adaptation occurs) 3. Exhaustion In Strength and Conditioning, in order to not fall into phase 3 (Exhaustion), we have things like periodization... Recovery days... Else burnout... Similarly to the mind! We can push the threshold, but remember to rest. Regression is part of progression! Self-care is Self-love!!

@DKSigh 3 года назад

This might be my favorite video of yours thus far. It is more of a reflection of your own knowledge over than what you may have remodeled by a book youve read. I mean of course it is from something youve learned but definitely had more of a sense of you as the creator of the video. You mention the Doestoyasofghwoeugh book but thats pretty much all. Really, job well done.

@nathananderson8720 Год назад

This is one of the channels that gave me the courage to start my RU-vid channel 2 months ago about self development and now I have 139 subs and almost 75 hours of watch time. I know it’s not comparable with others but I’m still proud I started because I’ve been learning so many lessons that I couldn’t have learned without getting started in the 1st place.

@deborahhall9086 Год назад

I'm happy for you! That is major courage and serious progress. Yes, be proud. Few actually dare to even begin. And all the learning is the best part, ain't it. Just want to pass you a great teacher I found recently. A veery likable dude I am finding extremely effective and valuable. His name is Graham Cochrane. Offers free RU-vid videos on how to build what you love to do. I'm now making major progress on the clear and ethical step by step path he teaches in his excellent book How To Get Paid For What You Know. His guidance is admirable, realistic and DO able. All the best

@nathananderson8720 Год назад

@@deborahhall9086 My channel has almost 200 subs and 84 hours of watch time although my next video completion progress has been pretty slow due to switching to another editing software and change of gears but no matter how slow it is to make videos, I do enjoy it. I know that my channel is way more low quality and not even close to other RU-vidrs' success out there but really, I realized that the main reason for doing this is not about the success but the inspiration I've been providing some people with my stories and experiences. Whoever you are, I don't know you personally but I can say based on what you said, I can say that you're one of the non-judgmental and open-minded people who is not fixated on tangible or external factors in order to learn from someone like me. Just because someone doesn't have a piece of paper as a credential, doesn't mean that person is not entitled to share personal experiences with the hope & intention to inspire others. Keep up with whatever it is that you're doing to improve mankind or improving your life even to a slight degree each day. This is just one part of a bigger puzzle for creating my RU-vid channel about holistic health. I literally could have died back when I was 14 years old due to major depression but here I am right now replying to you, a RU-vidr, who's full of fulfillment and dedication to help others to be a better version of themselves. I ain't better than anyone else but my old self. That's all that really makes this RU-vid thing more meaningful and enjoyable. Thanks so much for your support!

@etcetera3282 3 года назад

That's a great video. I probably knew everything you said. But the way you combined & brought together everythibg is such a paradigm shifter. Thank you.

@nicholascaggiano2482 2 года назад

i think most people have an issue that cant be solved by just reading and learning. il explain. your comparison to physical strength is apt, putting your body through stress gradually introduces chaos to their body that slowly gets repaired through rest and diet. information does the same to the brain, slowly you keep introducing more and more stress and information that turns order into chaos, and back into order. the problem is when you consider what happens when to much chaos is introduced at once. if you try to lift a weight that is too heavy , you can run the risk of injury. if your body can become damaged. at which point, no amount of diet can save that, its going to need direct intervention, rest, recuperation maybe even some physical therapy to make sure it heals correctly. if it doesn't heal correctly, you might be dealing with chronic pain for the rest of your life . or a leg that's broken that doesn't have proper treatment can stay broken. the same can be said for mental health. sometimes information can be too much to bare on someone all at once, this is what trauma is. beholding a traumatic event can be considered in taking new information, no? doom scrolling and learning every day horrible events and horrible atrocities of life could be akin to wearing heavy heights all day with no rest or reoperation .what doesn't kill you genuinely doesn't make you stronger all the time, you can suffer permanent damage just like the physical body, and its very important to our world that we acknowledge that !

@harshitpathak7897 3 года назад

Good things do take time,same applies here in getting mentally stronger,you work in small units daily in achieving it,most importantly you need to start valuing yourself,love yourself,start accepting things with being ok with it,it will cut out your overthinking,you are nothing else than your thoughts, "arrange your thoughts,arrange your life".

@JL-ol8zg 3 года назад

I believe meditation and reflection are also key aspects to building resilience (strength as you put it). Reading with out reflection and analysis is orders of magnitude less beneficial. Having experiences with auto-pilot turned on leaves those valuable moments hollow. Being truly mindful can turn even mundane activities into monumental moments. I agree with what you have said, however, I feel these is so much more to this topic and that your model lacks substance and practicality. Keep up the good work.

Trust me it'has shattered me from every angle. currently suffering from bipolar disorder.. donno what is coming next .. but i don't feel pain neither any kind of pleasure. It's hard to describe but . somehow meditation has helped me. Trust me life is all about pain so enjoy pain !! The more you suffer the more depth of life you'll understand.. or maybe I am absolutely wrong !!

Most important video I have seen. I am saving it for life. Totally agree that nutrition and good health is most important thing and foundation one needs to build things on. I would request the creator of this content to continue the effort and find the courage to go deeper into topics. Everyone is thirsty for knowledge . I want to thank the RU-vid recommendation system to suggest me this video.

"Instead of avoiding an uncomfortable thought or feeling, face it. Lie still, close your eyes and visualise it. Feel the feeling. What does it look like? Feel the energy in your body. How does the energy feel? Feel how it changes from one form to another. Enter into a state of observation and watch as it transforms."

@Gottergebener96 3 года назад

Cool Video. I agree with most of the things u said in the video. But instead of reading i know that putting urself in situation of stress and overcoming them is the main ground to build mental strength. Like u said before in the video, talking infront of people. U fear it, its a stressor, u put urself in the situation, create order by the practical knowledge u received, improved ur mindset (u call it worldview) towards talking infront of people.

@utikayrtorrentor3323 3 года назад

read classical literature, don't associate young adult fiction and most self help literature with "reading books", the gold is mostly in the filtered list of the classics from the best, which have stood the test of time for many many years. Especially fiction that weaves philosphical points and ideas, aiding an individual's ability to reflect on their position in society, in the bigger universe, in life.. Leo Tolstoy's Anna Karenina, Herman Melville's Bartbly, Moby Dick, Virginia Woolf's Mrs. Dalloway, to the lighthouse and so on are invaluable to me...
